We find that most adults experience gum disease to some degree, and most people experience it at least once in their lifetime.
If you have gum disease, your gums may bleed when you brush your teeth and you may have bad breath.
This early stage of gum disease is known as gingivitis. Gum disease is much less common in children.
If gingivitis is not treated, a condition called periodontitis can develop.
Periodontitis affects the tissues that support teeth and hold them in place. If periodontitis is not treated, the bone in your jaw may be damaged and small spaces can open up between the gum and teeth. Your teeth can become loose and may eventually fall out.
If you are experiencing any of these symptoms please give us a call today on 028 7963 2495
Oral cancer is an extremely serious disease that manifests itself in various ways. Our dentists are highly trained to recognise these signs and symptoms, and with regular dental checkups every six months the likelihood of catching oral cancer in time is dramatically higher.

Unexplained, persistent lumps in the mouth that do not go

Gentle Touch Dental Implant Clinic offers custom-made white fillings that match tooth colour for more natural looking results. The white fillings are safer, more aesthetically pleasing and look and feel more natural.
Decay can often lead to losing teeth and many of us would be embarrassed if we were missing one or more front teeth and we would leap into action to fix the situation as soon as possible.
But what about losing back teeth?
Unfortunately, most people don’t give it a second thought when they lose a back tooth, even though it can cause very serious problems. In fact, losing a back tooth can eventually lead to losing more back teeth which can then result in drifting teeth, gum disease, fractured fillings and even headaches and changes in speech.
We believe prevention is key and Gentle Touch Dental Implant Studio can replace your missing back teeth and help you keep the rest of your teeth for years to come.
Sucking your thumb
Could cause permanent changes that affect tooth and jaw structure.
Biting your nails
Is not only bad for your fingers, it can actually hurt your teeth too!
Don't brush too hard
If you brush too vigorously, you can cause more harm than good.
Tooth Grinding
Jaw clenching or tooth grinding can also damage dental work.
Crunching Ice
Cold temperature and the hardness of ice cubes can cause serious damage.
Toothpicks
Being heavy handed can put you at risk of causing damage to your gum tissue.
Holding items
Lots of pressure is being placed on teeth as they bite down on a non-food object.
They are not Tools
Teeth are not meant to help us break off a tag, rip tape or unscrew bottle lids.
Dentists can be afraid of going to the dentist too.
Robert himself has a fear of the dentist and decided he wanted to change the perception of going to the dentist for other's, these are the foundations on which Gentle Touch was built in 1990.
We can help - If you would like to experience our Gentle Touch, give us a call today.
